“Ensure staff-to-child ratio and supervision are maintained at all times. LS Sommer observed children going to the bathroom alone by leaving the cafeteria. Staff stated they thought standing in the doorway between the cafeteria and hallway would allow supervision. LS Sommer explained the doorway is a threshold and when children or staff cross it, it affects the staff-to-child ratio and supervision. This was corrected when a group of children were taken to the bathroom by a qualified staff, leaving a second staff member alone with 15 children.”
